What do you attribute your success to?
- He attributes his success to hard work and never giving up despite any and all obstacles that he had to go through to get to where he is now. He was born and raised in Cuba and was an excellent student while he was a young boy, and he also was an amazing swimmer, as he became a water polo champion. He thought he would pursue his dreams in water polo, but decided to go into Medical School, as a girl he liked was doing so, so that made him follow. He excelled far beyond his expectations and found himself traveling from Cuba to South America where he practiced in Chile for seven years. He then decided to come to the United States, learn to speak English, and there he found his calling and his home in Miami Florida as he has opened up his own practice Legacy MD. He enjoys taking care of his patients and has been on the field now for more than 30 years and is just now started to feel as if he has finally found his calling. He became the first in his family to become a doctor and as he still swims for fun and exercise, he is glad that he decided to take care of people and become a doctor so that he can make a difference in people\'s lives. He can be found @ www.legacymd.com and on LinkedIn.
